i am missing something here big time
Okay, so I've been running profile in beta since they offered it, so granted, I'm really used to it. But I'm seriously confused; what exactly is wrong with it besides being rather stark?
(Also granted, I'm a huge fan of stark and simple.)
I'm reading the complaints and while some of the issues (the bio customization) aren't ones that relate to me since I don't put anything in there but text, the rest seem to be talking about a profile page that is nothing like the one I'm looking at.
I am also all over those tiny arrows that close and open up sections; that pleases.
Controversy at
lj_design here and here, and featured on Fandom Wank here.
If you have no idea what I'm talking about, check your profile for the new layout.

niqaeli reminded me of this: Kat's Page, please squint. This, two failed frame experiments, a period of black background/white text and thinking it was a brilliant idea to make a single image a background and imbed an imagemap on it is why my webpage is exactly three colors plus simple images. Those were dark times, people.
...seriously. I created that background myself. I leave it there when I get flights of fancy with css to remind me of the dark side.
